We arrived in Sydney and caught a train straight to Gosford. My Uncle Mark and all the family came to pick us up and took us back to their house. They had already set up a bed downstairs which we would have assumed was for us, but instead they gave us their bedroom, so they didn't wake us in the mornings. We felt bad taking their room but they insisted and it was very much appreciated. We had some lovely meals with them all and then on the Sunday we all caught t...

We took it in turns to drive to Nimbin and when we arrived in the town, there were police all over the place with dogs and other policy type stuff. We called Ants auntie Deb's and she said she'd come and meet us in an hour or so, so we went for a wonder around the shops and stopped to have a beer. We met Debs and followed her back to her house, which was up in the mountains. The attached picture was taken from her garden! Stunning...! Debs had some friends over...

We arrived in Murwillumbah to watch the WRC Rally on the Thursday and chilled around the van. We hadn't organised tickets or anything, so we had to walk into the town from the Campsite the next morning to see where we got them.

We came to the massive field where all the food tents and stuff were located and worked ou...

The following morning we took a nice long walk to the most Easterly point in Australia and then up to the lighthouse. It was a really lovely walk and took us about 2 hours in total. We could see dolphins playing in the surf and loads of...

We decided to take a detour for the weekend, so did about a two hours drive to Nimbin. I'm not sure what I was expecting of Nimbin, as we had heard many a story but I thought if anything it would have been a lot bigger than a tiny road with shops! We found a campsite and went for a little walk into the town. The place is full of hippies and in some ways was a little scary but cool. Back at the campsite, Ant was standing outside the van when a bird flew really l...
